ECOWAS Enhances Regional Integration via Digital Training

The ECOWAS Commission is conducting a four-day training in Abuja aimed at enhancing regional integration through the African Regional Integration Synthesized Index Digital Platform. This initiative is part of the African Union Commission’s broader strategy to strengthen monitoring, evaluation, and reporting of regional integration across Africa.

Mr. Madji Gasper, Program Officer for Data Harmonization, represented Professor Felix Fofana N’ZUE at the event, emphasizing the need for reliable and timely data. The training involves participants from various ECOWAS Commission Directorates and Departments and covers updated methodologies, data collection procedures, quality assurance, and digital reporting processes.

The platform modernizes data collection by replacing manual systems with an integrated digital solution, improving efficiency, transparency, and accountability. The ECOWAS Commission reaffirms its commitment to supporting initiatives that enhance regional cooperation and align with Agenda 2063 and ECOWAS Vision 2050.
